[IngloriousButter]

@headbangs947 lol ya ya just pokin the bears...

[IngloriousButter]

wow i didnt expect to see those exact top comments coming here fuck

[fanomunoz]

This is a billion times better than the gay-wanna be space-new-age bullshit of goat cudi!

[wizzleman412]

@fanomunoz dude wtf are you trolling about... theres no others artists out that you could compare kid cudi to so stfu about him being a wannabe

[fanomunoz]

@wizzleman412 that's because your stuck to mainstream/commercial bullshit...the kid is not even Hip Hop he's hip pop..big difference..and I'm a Hip Hop fan and live it, so bullshit like basically whatever is on the radio or tv gives Hip Hop a bad name, because people tend to confuse the two seperate types of culture...that's all you nice robot..

[wizzleman412]

@fanomunoz stuck to mainstream.. i hate mainstream shit and besides you know nothing about me haha so you can stop running your mouth.

[tycuza]

@fanomunoz funny because you give a terrible name to the greatest zip code on the planet

[SirLittleBen]

@Dlaj2011 Fair enough, I can respect that. Just not my cup of tea, I guess. But different strokes for different folks.

[Mibbsta23]

CuDi did wonders to this, I could never picture another rapper, besides cudi, rapping on some Ratatat or MGMT, now i find out he rapped on some Menahan Street Band too?! There Is Nothing That CuD Cant Do!

[basketballjonesobaby]

Solo Dolo

[AudioDiversity]

this is song is past dopet status, you lame fucks stick to what you've been told.

[SirLittleBen]

I can't believe most of these comments are focused on Kid Cudi, especially when there's currently magic coming out of your speakers.

[ImSorichbich12]

such a great sample

[ryanmcmeans]

solo dolo!!

[policekiller305]

so what song did he sample for day and night?

[STEALTHvMONSTER]

@policekiller305 There was no sample dot da genius produced the beat and tha wha wha voice was vocals from another singer all original :D

[policekiller305]

@STEALTHvMONSTER o, dam i dnt kno that,,,sweeet

[zbbbz]

@policekiller305 benga and coki

[KINGJOSH4EVA]

@Hoggles49 Lol same here

[jbs395]

@Hoggles49 lol same

[WizardCecil]

@Hoggles49 hahaha same here

[WizardCecil]

@Hoggles49 hahaha same here

[MsFashionrocks]

People saying Cudi's Fake because he sampled this song. Last time i checked, cudi is doing this thing called rapping. Using Lyrics. It doesnt matter if he took the beat... If the shit he's sayingvis DOPE! Then Why hate?

[iJacob3000]

lol 1 dislike

[ItsBackToLumby]

that 1 guy that disliked is the traitor

[Porkchop93]

00:00 dislikes!

[yubidee]

cudis a spastic sandwich

[MrPotawatomiThunder]

Does anybody know this song bpm?

[sdekanich]

why do ppl say "kid cudi sampled this" or "50 cent sampled this"..??? neither of them sampled anything, the producers of the beat did and they spit over it

[bludemon07]

@sdekanich Can you name either of their producers off-hand? AND have people know who you're talking about?? People use the artists names because they're recognizable, chill..

[birdbal]

@sdekanich yeah thats true, but most ppl recgonize the song by the artist not the producer

[Qqj68]

@sdekanich duh lol

[andre300078]

@sdekanich wow stfu fag

[CslashR]

@sdekanich cause he did sample it but they only really used the start and filtered out the bass hits on it

[IINmareII]

@sdekanich

kid cudi was sitting right next to Emile when THEY were producing it. Read the Emile interview by Complex. Never judge the cuder!

[ThaJokerFanatic]

@sdekanich kid cudi said himself he sampled this look up Nardwuar vs Kid Cudi he says it himself

[Laxer1313]

@sdekanich Actually Cudi said he sampled it, which isn't bad. Dunno why that would offend you either way. Music is for sharing and for all enjoy.

[meowniarmeow]

@sdekanich It's a useful information...I disagree with your ramblings.

[mrmag1cc]

I got this from the Crooksncastles website. Love this song.

[DemeulenaerePedro]

Reaallly ggod album!!!! thanks to you bro's

[Kingjames313]

50 Cent sampled this on his "War Angel" mixtape

[iCaged]

kid cudi mr solo dolo remixxxxxx

[thatboyshellz]

Thank you Kid Cudi for exposing me to The Menahan Street Band...

[OGKizzle]

Cudi butchered this song by slowing it down so much. This is 800 million fucking times better.

[tyrizzone]

Word to EMILE! For sampling such an obscure song, and for producing such an incredible song for Kid Cudi! "I'm......Mr. Solo Dolo...."

[youngnova326]

50 Cent is Better Than Cudi !

[Prophit02]

@youngnova326 You sir need medical assistance if you think 50 is better than Cudi.

[desmondandstuff]

@Prophit02 cudi isn'tt as good as when a kid name cudi came out...he booty now..fifty not garbage..he just do whatever he wants

[Prophit02]

@desmondandstuff Na Cudi is even better than before. I guess your just not into musical progression.

[desmondandstuff]

@Prophit02 i'm really am. but all prgression isn't good progression..

[Prophit02]

@desmondandstuff I guess we have different tastes.

[ManOnTheMoonII]

@youngnova326 better in what? rapping... nope

[SMILEYSSx33]

I am mr. solo dolo -33

[AboveCommonInsyt]

This is good, although i like cudi's version a bit more, just because its darker. BUT this does have a different sound that sounds good on its own.

[Nazaret99]

@AboveCommonInsyt this is the original, of course its better

[3dGOA]

thumbs up if vaib one sent you here!

[seankeatonthehnic]

these niggas is green

[xanderabstract]

Crazy !!!! Cudi !!

mann

MUSIC IS LOVE

[0mansoon0]

Damn yall kill people's buzz, music is a form of comunication. When a jazz musician plays a solo, he conveys his inner most thoughts and feelings. He then passes it to another member of the ensemble...who's to say that Cudi and Menahan weren't collaborating unbeknownst to each other to form a greater picture than both intended. Menahan sparking the idea then cudi supporting the flame with oxygen...Love music, think music, know music.

[MrTabolt213]

thumbs up if your here because cudis the man!

[thizz0707]

@MrTabolt213 im here from i know by blanco. in my opinion the beat is so much better on his song than kid cuddi's and 50 cent's. i love the original though. it is so dope.

[LafayetteYette]

Oh damn, I like this groove. :)

[BassBeatsProductions]

I think people don't understand the reason behind sampling. Producers only sample GOOD music and it our way of showing appreciation for their music.

[kingod615]

@THE CUDI LOVER PAUSE.....NO HOMO LOL.....BOONDOCKS LOL

[josethespacebeaner]

Kid Cudi is BEAST!

[monsho2008]

talikin in codes!!

[monsho2008]

these ni@#as is green!

50cent.

[gaypplreadthis]

Listen good, i dont need...nobody

[NotreDameDan]

For all the people who are bitching about Cudi sampling this song calm down. I am sure the menahan street band is faltered that Cudi sampled their song and if they weren't couldn't they have just not given him the rights to use the song? I had never heard of menahan street band until I searched for the sample of solo dolo and I am happy Cudi used it because it made me discover this great band.

[Rico11756]

Why Does Everyone Like To Listen To Samples Used In Hip-Hop?

[kguard5]

@Rico11756 Is it wrong to want to find the original song...most of the time they are better then the hip hop stuff...

[ops049]

@Rico11756 gives insight into the musical tastes of the producers or artist....sometimes the samples are really obscure and interesting....like kanye sampless...

[mrdk216]

@Rico11756 cos their usually so good..and its just a way to expand the music u listen to :)

[13unlucky]

this is just as good as solo dolo

[xMuRkZ15]

Mr. SoLo DoLo!!!!!

[SAXjewell]

Solo Dolo!

[producerjb]

solo dolos better. , this is nice but cudis is on a whole new level

[FreshmanMusic]

Frank Dukes ! Toronto represent

[SPRINGS02]

the original and cudi's version of this song are both really good. Personally i like how solo dolo more because imo it sounds better slowed down with strings added to it but i definitely can appreciate the original.

[TechDeck723]

Yeah I agree with the few people who actually know the depth of music. I'm a huge Cudi fan. But the original is usually gonna be better. You have to give both artists credit. If it wasn't for Cudi then this song wouldn't be discovered as much.

[DocHallux]

if you like the menahan street band, check out the last 4 vids i posted. rahsaan roland kirk. good stuff.

[Fishskywalker3]

Don't forget 50 cents new song talking in codes sampled this.

[gedbeat15]

yeah.....Kid Cudi's "Solo Dolo" was better

[mohammad5]

@gedbeat15 The fuck you are saying "solo dolo" was better, totally different genres and taste. Solo Dolo sampled this, that's all..so how can it be better when there would be no "Solo Dolo" without this song to sample. Smh.

[gedbeat15]

@mohammad5

if you read the previous comments, i was telling Fishskywalker that Solo Dolo was better than the song that 50 made with the same sample. so quit jumping to conclusions you fucking bitch!

[mohammad5]

@gedbeat15 my apologies than man, with this new youtube system it's harder to read these comments. Sorry again man lol

[gedbeat15]

@mohammad5 it's all good my man. sorry for name calling. and yeah, this new youtube is confusing and unnecessary

[mrdk216]

@mohammad5 i agree on this song..but each to their own, as long as good music exists thats all that matters, also ppls music taste changes ppl might appreciate this a lil more in the future. peace

[mohammad5]

@mrdk216 Or a lil more back than.

[GreenAms]

@gedbeat15 he sampled this...so props for the original

[yeahwafflesgo]

billy blue AND kid cudi

[mizkity03]

The fact that Kid Cudi sampled Menahan Street Band is a compliment to the band. People begin to appreciate a broader range of music after hearing the originals.

[MenaSDC]

@mizkity03 exactly

even w. kanye if ppl appreciate music anyway they will

find the sample n then be exposed to other things

which will only culture you... i love it

[ShootsDenBrah]

@mizkity03 very much so i respect cudi for his appreciation, and unlike all these one track minds there is ALOT of great music out there just got to find it.

[IllmaticEscobar91]

@mizkity03 the fact that KiD CuDi, Jay Z (for 'And The Winner Is'), and Curren$y ('Flying Iron') at one point sampled a Menahan Band song is that they appreciate the diverse and badass sound known as afrobeat lol

[dodecopus]

@IllmaticEscobar91 i'd say more ethio-jazz (i.e. mulatu astatke) influenced rather than afro-beat (ie fela kuti, west african). my intention is to share leads to similar music, not to be more "correct" than you.

[AudioDiversity]

@mizkity03 audio diversity was born from a broader range...

[iMNAZAL]

Yeah, I love Wiki-ing songs and seeing where they sampled from and hearing the originalsssss.

[tornadomad]

lol wrong song

[Jiggidy22]

i always love to see where samples come from . iLike the oriqinal better (=

[onfire10198]

i just love how you all are like kid cudi but really the credit has to go totally to the menahan street band

[mattyclownshoes]

THANK YOU!! glad you like the tunes, man. fuck cudi. he ain't even hot shit.

[Reptarism101]

your mom isnt hot shit either.

[MrSocialist]

You haven't even given him a chance, try being captivated by his in depth lyrics.

He sampled it, he liked it. If two people like the same music don't you think that's a good enough have a friendship or respect of sorts?

Anyways, fuck you, you stupid ignorant twat.

[jae1g]

lol he is hot shit, hater.

[daffybuck1]

@DocHallux if it wasnt for CuDi i would've never check this band out
